One martyr, one wounded in armed attack on two police officers in Diyarbakir

One of the wounded police officers has died from wounds inflicted during armed assault.

The officers were on duty around 2:45 p.m. on Şehitlik Avenue before the attack. One of the officers was shot in the head.

An investigation has been launched into the case, which has not been claimed by any group so far.

On July 22, two other officers were found dead in Turkey's southeastern province, which was claimed by the outlawed PKK terrorist group. Three suspects have been detained as part of the investigation into the killings of the two officers in Şanlıurfa.
